Same leads, same decade, but how is the fight for feminism portrayed in these two classics of the Golden Age of Hollywood?
Katharine Hepburn was undoubetdly a prototype of Feminism during the Golden Age of Hollywood, well-known for eshewing conventions in dressing and behaviour. Whilst her 'box office poison' status may have been related to these transgressions, directors such as George Stevens of Woman of the Year and George Cukor of Adam's Rib ignored the naysayers and created timeless classics led by the celebrated actress.
Harding is introduced as a force to be reckoned with, publicly denouncing the presence of baseball while the world is at war. According to her, such activities are frivolous and unhelpful to a society with greater things to focus on. It is a tidy summation of Tess’ character insofar as it speaks to a strong moral compass, but is self-serving and occasionally ignorant. However in this instance, Ms.

As everyone knows, crunchy toast is a gateway drug to Stepford Wife, and Tess embarks upon a scene so drawn-out, one might reassess Tree of Life as being positively edge-of-your-seat.
Unlike the character of Tess Harding, Amanda doesn’t feel compelled to be at the opening of an envelope, nor is she collecting column inches. Maintaining the strength of her convictions and fighting confidently and optimistically for the cause rather than for herself, this Ruth-Bader-Ginsburg-in-a-pencil-skirt demonstrates a society that is reflected in its justice system. The result? Our Hero doesn’t just fight, she wins.
